It appears the VA GOP is kaput for the time being at winning statewide elections. The GOP has been throwing goose eggs for the past several election cycles. Both establishment candidates and fringe candidates lose. With Northern Virginia, NoVa, now 100% part of the Northeast Corridor the GOP is deep in the hole statewide.

Bush League Republicans have ruined Virginia.
We are now outnumbered by northeast transplants and illegal aliens.

A Bush League Republican can’t win, either, the National Review is wrong.

Another candidate would have just lost by less - which is still losing.

Doesn’t matter who the candidate was.

The people who run the VAGOP work for the Democrats, and until that changes Virginia will get deeper and deeper blue.

NRO is really a worthless rag and Geraghty is a moron. These guys are no doubt still pleasuring themselves to Gillespie’s 18k vote loss to Warner in 2014 as if they could maybe get over the hump with the right candidate.

The only reason Gillespie was that close was because NoVA was caught sleeping. Trump wasn’t president, Warner was polling double digits ahead and no one had any particular worries of Warner losing by not showing up.

There is no establishment R who would have won in VA this year, and there will be no more GOP senators from VA again, barring some fluke or Menendez-type possible opponent. They would probably lose closer, but so what? The DC suburbs now dominate the state.

VA is firmly now a blue state and as the demographics continue to change it will become even more so.

VA is solid blue. No Rep has won statewide office in 8 years. Mass immigration and domestic migration from the Northeast have changed the demographics forever. VA is gone. Corey is not the problem.

Revenge will come when the DOJ indicts Warner for leaking classified information
